i have 3 physicians who are in the same group, different specialties – ortho, hand surgery & podiatry all performed surgery on a patient during the same anesthesia session, each physician doing a different body part at different times, example: when the hand surgeon finished the ortho came in, and then the podiatrist. what modifier should each surgery be coded with? im thinking 58 but my co-worker is thinking 66.
the op note on each physician reads:
panel 1: drs name & surgery performed
panel 2: drs name & surgery performed
panel 3: drs name & surgery performed

thank you in advance for your input.
